EXOTIC MICEOLEPIDOPTEEA. 
terminal joint with basal third and a minute subapical ring dark 
fuscous. Thorax pale brownish-ochreous. Forewings elongate, 
widest before middle, then gently narrowed, apex rounded, termen 
very obliquely rounded ; ochreous-brown, lighter towards base ; an 
irregular blotch of fuscous and dark suffusion occupying median 
third of dorsum, surmounted by a rather large black scaletuft on 
fold, two or three fuscous dots round this, a small fuscous scaletuft 
in middle of disc ; an irregular white blotch occupying posterior 
third of dorsum and reaching half across wing, including some 
irregular marking of fuscous suffusion, some dots of dark fuscous 
suffusion on posterior edge of this and on costa towards apex : 
cilia blackish-grey round apex and upper part of termen, beneath 
becoming pale greyish with obsolescent blackish median shade. 
Hindwings light greyish, paler and subhyaline anteriorly ; cilia 
pale greyish. 
Panama, Lino, 2650 feet; 1 ex. (Vienna Mus.). 
ACAETOPHILA, n. g. 
Head on crown with long rough spreading scales, face with 
loosely appressed scales ; ocelli posterior; tongue developed. 
Antennae j, 3 serrate, with very long fine fasciculated ciliations 
diminishing to apex, scape moderate, without pecten. Labial palpi 
very long, recurved, second joint rising much above crown, thickened 
with appressed or rough scales, terminal joint shorter than second, 
rather slender, acute. Maxillary palpi obsolete. Anterior tibiae 
short, tarsi slender, more than twice tibiae, posterior tibiae shortly 
rough-scaled. Forewings 1 6 furcate, 2 and 3 stalked from angle, 
7 and 8 stalked, 7 to termen, 11 from middle. Hindwings 1 , 
trapezoidal-ovate, cilia 5 ; 2 from |, 3 and 4 closely approximated 
at base, 5 rather approximated towards base, 6 and 7 rather near 
and parallel on anterior half, diverging posteriorly. 
An abnormal type, but probably with some relationship to 
Cryptolechia ; the two species differ in form of palpi, but agree well 
in all other peculiar features, and should not be separated. Type 
rnicrosacta. 
Acartophila rnicrosacta, n. sp. 
. 20 mm. Head greyish-ochreous, slightly brownish-tinged. 
Palpi whitish, second joint fuscous except towards apex. Antennal 
ciliations 7. Forewings suboblong, slightly dilated, costa anteriorly 
moderately, posteriorly slightly arched, apex obtuse-pointed, termen 
faintly sinuate, somewhat oblique; greyish-ochreous, slightly speckled 
dark brown ; a small dark fuscous spot on base of costa; a small 
subtriangular dark fuscous blotch on middle of costa, apex rather 
rounded and only reaching | across wing; discal stigmata repre¬ 
sented by small dark fuscous dots, remote, a suffused dark brown 
dot beneath second, beyond these a rather broad somewhat curved 
fascia of brownish suffusion parallel to termen, darkest in disc, 
undefined posteriorly ; three or four small spots of dark fuscous
